Takeshima Kunou

Subject: Takeshima Kunou Sun Nov 11, 2012 3:07 pm

Name: Takeshima Kunou
Nickname: Shima
Age: 20 BD: 28-12
Gender: Male
Weapon(s): Seele Schneider

Personality: An Ill-tempered, seemingly apathetic guy with severe depression.. Yet surprisingly sympathetic and empathetic. In his short life span he's seen so much pain that he feels the need to take all that haunts him inside, and just shut it out. It ends up coming back to him in ways, night terrors, suicidal thoughts that he will never go through with, and feelings of uselessness that leave him standing idly by while the world plummets into a deeper pit of dispair.

What's shocking though is through all this he still has some willingness to help people, most likely to stop that feeling of uselessness. The thing is, in his short life span he himself has felt so much pain that he does want to stop those who do not deserve it from continuing through it, or having to face it for much longer. Even if it means sacrificing some of what he has, or some of his own happiness, what little that is anyway.

Physical Appearance: Shima is a rather well kept guy. He generally wears nice dress shirts and a vest. They may be somewhat stressed and even torn occasionally.. His pants look like black dress pants, but are made out of a much stronger, denim material. It helps to keep it from tearing when he snags something. His hair is usually rather shiny, and his skin normally has a glow about it when he leaves his refuge.

Underneath his clothing though lies more truth than Shima would ever care to mention to people. Scars run along the length of his torso, most of them from broken glass when his father got fed up with him. There's a few burn marks from cigarettes on his side, and there is one long scar, from his hip to his shoulder on his back. This one was received when a hollow nearly sliced him in half. There are cuts along his thighs from years of self torment as well, although this is something no one ever sees.

Bio: Shima never lived a luxurious life. The minute he was born his life was filled with strife. The strain of his birth strained his mother to her limits, and she passed away not more than a few minutes after he was born. As Shima grew his stresses didn't fade. His father hated him, for the man felt it was his son's fault for the death of his precious, beautiful wife. His father used to be a kind, respectable man. But the death had taken it's toll on him mentally and financially. The funeral was not cheap, and neither were the extra bills for the complications of the birth. The man slowly was driven mad, and fired from his cushy job before having to get a dead end job as a fast food server. Not long after turning eight, Shima had become accustom to beatings from his father, burned with cigarettes, cut occasionally from broken glass. It all was hidden during his years that he attended school. and it continued for a long time.

Shima was about 12 when he discovered his mothers old things, in an old box in the attic of their home. He went through it like mad. He found a beautiful pendent, though he was positive it looked different before he had grabbed it. But it almost spoke to him, whispered words of comfort and made him feel safe. When he was alone, usually after physical abuse from the man he called a father, he would lay curled up and whisper words of hope to his pendant, hoping someone would hear.

Eventually something did.

It was three years after the discovery of the ankh pendent that he usually wore on his wrist. As he laid in bed there was a knocking at his window. The teenager approached the window and opened it gently as some spirit stood staring at him. She seemed human, her features feminine, smooth like porceline and flawless. She slowly led the boy out and walked with him for a while. Takeshima had begun to see slightly glowing blow orbs floating around as they walked. Suddenly the feminine creature gained a horrendous face as her mask peeled back her flesh and peaked through. Shima's powers woke that night. The glowing orbs floated to his wrist as he fled. They began to form a small bow on his wrist.

The hollow was getting closer, and it slammed into Shima, and knocked him down and came close to feast on him. As Shima hit the ground he rolled and noticed what had formed. He gripped up and grabbed it and pulled the string back, and arrow forming out of some blue energy that had suddenly made the boy so tired. The Hollow was close and about to crash down before the blue light pierced through it's mask. It staggered, and collapsed, and slowlyfaded away.

After this secret was discovered Shima worked to hone his skills, and he became more confident, and fought back with his father, though took a few wounds through the years, and incidently became a little masochistic, and prone to self harm. When he had turned eighteen Shima was gone. With most of his mom's stuff as well. He currently resides in the very home he had left to when he left his father. Just a little one bedroom apartment.

Role-play sample:
Smoke gently fluttered into the air as Shima worked to calm himself. He gently dragged on his cigarette as he walked forward into the area controlled by a hollow with a dense spiritual energy. He could feel a coldness from the air as he walked into the reiatsu field, which gave Shima a feeling of anxiety. The air felt heavy, and hard to breathe in. There were sounds resonating in all directions and Shima felt unsafe. Still, he did not turn back and pressed on. He knew he was getting close though. Shima could almost taste the spiritual energy the hollow was leaking. He couldn’t pinpoint though, which was odd. He could mostly just tell the direction. “This thing must be huge..” Shima said sounding discouraged. He hadn’t met anything stronger than the plain menos hollow. He shut his eyes and extended his arms, so that his body made a cross, his wrist bent and his hands faced the floor. He inhaled slowly, breathing in the calming nicotine and trying to free his senses to feel reishi levels. It was sudden, but Shima heard the sound of breaking branches and rustling leaves, and he felt the large presence coming from behind. He spun quickly to spot the large beast that was heaving it’s body up into the sky. It obviously had intentions of crashing down on him.

Shima knew he couldn’t take a hit like that. He watched for a second, letting the cigarette fall from his mouth before a blue light slid beneath his feet. This beast was radiating enough energy for him to use abilities he wasn’t so strong with. A few seconds before the hollow hit Shima’s form flashed and vanished, his speed bringing him to become a blur. He had only moved a few meters away however. His hirenkyaku was at a low level, and the only reason he was able to make it this far was because of the free reishi. The blue light quickly formed into his hand and he aimed it at the hollow, who at full height was near three meters tall. Shima was quick and fired off a shot into the creatures knee. It pierced through and the hollow staggered slightly, crashing to a knee. Shima began to draw the bow back again but the hollow turned it’s head and opened it’s mouth, a thin, clearly not fully powered crimson beam fired out with the intent to blast Shima into non-existence. Shima vanished and reappeared just off to the side of the beam and fired a shot aimed for its head. The hollow’s mouth shut and it quickly ducked and pressed all fours onto the ground before it charged. Sort of charged. It more or less shot off and dove forward, since the stability of one of it’s legs had been greatly weakened by Shima’s first shot. Shima turned to dive out of the way but the beast got a grip on his leg and yanked him. It rolled onto it’s back and grabbed him tightly with it’s other hand, around his torso. It’s free hand reached over and gripped into the ground, it’s sharp claws breaking through the earth and digging to pull out a mound of concrete. It’s grip was suffocating. Shima grabbed one of his seele schneiders and yanked it up, watching it absorb the reishi in the air and form a blue blade. He slammed it down into the wrist of the hollow who had just ripped out a chunk of the ground. It began to raise it above his head. Shima quickly ripped the blade to the side, though the hollows muscles were thick and strong, and the uncut tendons still kept the hand on, and kept on squeezing, slightly less tight, enough that Shima could breathe easier. He kicked his right foot up so that it could touch the seele schneiders handle. Just as the hollow began to bring the newly made boulder down, Reishi was under Shima’s foot and he pushed hard. It viciously amputated the hollows hand and sent Shima flying backwards. He hit the ground hard and groaned. He didn’t move for a second, having all the wind knocked out of his body. He also felt like he had broken a rib or two. The hollow was busy screaming as blood leaked from it’s damaged limb. Slowly Shima stood and turned, pulling back an arrow and he fired it, into the hollow’s weak side shoulder, it pierced and left a small hole. Shima pulled back again but was caught off guard. The hollow picked up it’s damaged hand and threw it hard. Shima fired his arrow and it hit the hand that was flying towards him, splitting it in two. The second after firing Shima turned and dove to the side, getting knicked into his arm by one half’s passing claws. It scraped him a little, but most of the damage was superficial. He felt the pain of his ribs again and lost his breath. He inhaled deeply as he heard the hollow closing in. Shima stood and looked at the hollow who was just about face to face with him, still staggering on it’s leg. It’s mouth glowed crimson once more and it stared down at Shima. Shima quickly dove out of the way, just as the beam hit the ground and pushed into the ground. However, the hollow was ready, and it brought it’s good arm across, and it cut deeply into Shima’s flesh. It was light at the shoulder and got deeper as it went to his opposite hip. He swore he felt the claw graze his spine. As he hit the ground he rolled, a few times, though stopped on his side, facing the hollow. It had turned it’s head and one more read beam was readying itself. Shima pulled himself upright. The hollow’s head went back, and it was clearly preparing for a more intense blast. Shima’s hand grabbed his other seele Schneider, since he was down to his last shot, and he needed all the power he could muster. He touched his bow and began to pull it back, the Reishi filling the Seele schneider up as he took aim. The hollow’s head came down and the beam began to fire, just as Shima released the arrow. It fired straight through the cero beam and pierced through the hollow’s face. The hollow fell back and slowly began dissolve, defeated.

Shima took some time to just lay there for a little bit. He slowly began to push himself to his feet and grabbed walked to where the hollow was before it perished and he grabbed the schneider he had just fired. He then walked a little ways to pick up the first one he had stabbed into the creature and then began walking more. It wasn’t long before he began to feel woozy however. After walking about a block he had passed out.

After a few days he had woken up in the hospital, bandaged and covered, but alive.

If the picture you used for appearance is of a character from another anime or game, you will need to face claim them afterwards. Just letting you know in case you didn't already.

I can approve this for ADV-3 with 65 points. Once these points are applied to stats and checked, this will be moved to approved.
